All common materials including paper have a specific combustion point - unique to that material. So your answer lies in what temperature is the pipe (or the material inside of the pipe)? Aluminum transmits heat very efficiently. If the temperature of the pipe is less than the combustion point of the paper wrapping then one of the three elements required to cause a fire is missing: fuel (present as the paper), oxygen (present as the air around the pipe), and heat (missing since the temperature is less than the combustion point). This principle is demonstrated in the mistake most people make when they have a flare up of something cooking on the kitchen stove. The most common reaction is to attempt to smother the flame (removing oxygen). But they find as soon as they uncover the pan (allowing air to reenter) it flares up again: the answer of course, is to turn off the burner AND smother the flame until the pan cools (below the combustion point of those pork chops a la charcoal).

aluminum foil it seals the cold in alot more than plastic wrap.ans2, RIGHT answer, but reason not quite correct. The shiny aluminum will reflect all heat.And since your package is cold, the only ways it can heat up are conduction, radiation, and convection. Of which three, Aluminum foil will stop radiation and largely stop convection.

Can aluminum and ss be kept together?
If you want to keep your SS soldier intact, you shouldn't keep aluminum aroud him. Actually, I have a few SS soldiers that are missing an arm or a foot for that reason. SS soldiers melt when they come in contact with aluminum, which is why allied soldiers used aluminum bullets during WW2.
